@ Twixn

Thanks for the info. I was wrong. Sorry for all that unnecessary complaining.

Looking forward to your next demos!

To Dr. Vodka:

The GameEngine2 uses shadow maps, and the jagged
edges are expected. I have an nVidia card and I
see the exact same thing. I would assume Humus
uses ATI for developing anyway (as he works for
ATI IIRC).

But i agree...even a simple neighbouring pixel
blur filter will do the world of good. But its
still an amazing demo!! I cant wait to see what
he does with it next (HDR etc).

Great work Humus! Just add your HDR demo code here, and this'd really rock! I love what you've done with the game engine. It has the same feel as UT:GOTY.

Also... I've got a 9600XT. I think your demo is having the same problem as NFS:MW with the shadows, they don't look the way they should, they're jagged! I'm using the official 5.13's, if that helps. I heard that this problem appears when using an nvidia technique for doing shadows, that ati cards don't fully support. Is there a solution for this?, like, blurring the shadows, or filtering them? 'Cause all of your old demos that used the same shadows don't have that problem, they're perfectly fine! (I don't really know what I'm saying... I may be talking shiat, but I'm sure you get the idea.)

Screenies:

Here they are fine:

Jagged...

...And jagged.

I've noticed that the shadows don't get rendered well when they come from an oblicuous surface, or thing, like in the picture above.

Again, maybe my drivers aren't configured well... or something in my system is wrong. Excuse me if that's the case.

Looking forward to the next version of the engine, and the coming demos!
